Correlating Easily And Unobtrusively Queried Computer Characteristics To Number And Severity Of Vulnerabilities, Jonathan M. Mercado
Correlating Easily And Unobtrusively Queried Computer Characteristics To Number And Severity Of Vulnerabilities, Jonathan M. Mercado
Theses and Dissertations
Cybersecurity has become a top-of-mind concern as the threat landscape expands and organizations continue to undergo digital transformation. As the industry confronts this growth, tools designed to evaluate the security posture of a network must improve to provide better value. Current agent-based and network scanning tools are resource intensive, expensive, and require thorough testing before implementation in order to ensure seamless integration. While surfacing specific vulnerability information is imperative to securing network assets, there are ways to predict the security status of a network without taking exact measurements. These methods may inform security professionals as to where the weakest points …
A Framework And Exploration Of A Cybersecurity Education Escape Room, Justin Charles Snyder
A Framework And Exploration Of A Cybersecurity Education Escape Room, Justin Charles Snyder
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis presents a review of educational-escape-room literature followed by a design-oriented framework (the Snyder Escape Room Framework or SERF) and demonstrates the potential efficacy of escape-rooms in cybersecurity education. Several authors have proposed frameworks and guidelines for game and educational design regarding escape rooms. This work coalesces some of those ideas into a more substantial and comprehensive framework (SERF) that designers can use when developing educational escape rooms. The Snyder Escape Room Framework provides heuristics for goals and objectives, players, activities, context, trajectory design, and evaluation. Additionally, this work describes and analyzes the novel prototyped BYU GCC escape room …
